No birds are a factor, rarely are they positive more often they are negative. If there is a particularly difficult gun to pick out a second look might help but the downside is dogs rarely watch the birds the second time as they did the first time.

I certainly agree with Ed, rarely is a no bird helpful. The only thing that might be of benefit in this scenario is for the early dogs: by having to drop back 6, there's more opportunity to get a little more scent laid down.
